Eighth “Day and Way” of Caring for the Caregiver ~ Learn relaxation techniques to help alleviate stress!

Dear NNPDF Families and Friends,

Stress is necessary for life. You need stress for creativity, learning, and your very survival. Stress is only harmful when it becomes overwhelming and interrupts the healthy state of equilibrium that your nervous system needs to remain in balance. Unfortunately, overwhelming stress has become an increasingly common characteristic of contemporary life ~ especially when one is faced with the ongoing care of a loved one.

The NNPDF Central Offices have identified useful web site resource programs which will assist the user in identifying available and easy options for caregivers that will help you to find the right relaxation techniques for stress relief.
